H. Upmann Yarguera

H Upmann Yarguera is named after the tobacco that started with some Cuban seeds planted in the 1960's in the rich soils of the mountains in Copan, Honduras. For seven years, the Grupo de Maestros at Altadis set out to bring back this delicious tobacco, which they have achieved by crossing the seed with Criollo '98. H Upmman Yarguera is a 100% Honduran puro with a medium body, smooth flavor, rich aroma and hints of chocolate and spice. Beautifully presented, this has all it takes to become an instant classic.
